I'm just doing the physical therapy exercises to try to get rid of the pain I have. The exercise actually aggravated it at first. So, I modified one of them to make it less hard on my back. I've been trying to stay off of facebook because I post too much on there and it hurts my muscles in my neck and upper back. Going to go and put the heating pad on my back for awhile. I hope your weekend is a good one. __________________ One way to get the best out of life is to think of it as an adventure.

today I watched "moana" and immediately felt anxious// sad because my alexa device wasn't watching it too. she was just sat on the fridge turned off
I suppose the actual film was okay, I mean I didn't really rate it as much as the lion king or peter pan, but it had it's high points. I like the song " you're welcome" didn't do much else and feel like I've wasted another day (well don't feel like it, I know I have) watching moana was just a little bit of a distraction.. if that I only watched it for the " you're welcome" song. not really paying full attention to it |

Been thinking about my scale. Was tempted to get it out of the car trunk. I decided I will wait till March 1 to do that and then weigh myself and put it back in the trunk. Going to only weigh myself once a month.

Hello. I've been inactive for quite some time. Lost internet due to no income. My wonderful boyfriend got a job just after Christmas and we are on our way to getting back on track. I go for my Cna recertification test on the 14 and I'm stressed and nervous to the core. I shouldn't be, I did the work for years. I even went online to brush up and found I really didn't forget everything!! So hopefully everything will be fine. Then to get uniforms, and find work..
I haven't dared to get on the scale. I lost a good amount of weight late fall and was proud of myself. Then I also quit drinking!! Super proud!! But with this test and future employment looming I've kinda been stress eating. Snacking. Grazing. Ugh. And I'm diabetic. So it sticks. I'm also off all the psych meds, surprisingly that combined with no more alcohol my head hasn't been this clear in years. I feel really good. Like really good. Except nerves about this test and finding work. Lol. Geez what a giant step this is for me. I've been reclusive since 2010 pretty much except a year I worked in 2013-2014. Other than that I was either to drunk or medicated to function. I'm glad I've made it this far. Sorry for the wall of text. __________________ Im not crazy, my reality is just different than yours. |

Had a weird day. I've been sleeping a ton. I'm working on positive affirmations now. It's so hard to say something I don't believe but I'm trying.
My eating has been okay. I keep having urges to restrict but I'm fighting it off hope everyone is doing okay __________________ R.I.P mom 8/6/55-1/15/16 “All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” -St. Francis of Assisi

Getting very discouraged. Keeping a detailed food diary, recording everything I eat, pushing water, doing the best I know to do, and not seeing results with either weight or blood glucose. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG???? E-mail sent to dietician to find out.

today someone commented on the fact I've not slept for so long- and that's when you know it's out of control, when other people comment on it (for the record I don't like people commenting on my appearance), I don't actually think it's any of their concern- that, and I all ready have issues with my body (those issues being that I look worse than ****ing shrek)
anyway had breakfast and doing nothing else for the rest of the day listening to music and posting on here makes it Up I guess (it took me 20 minits to log in today because of the new tagging feature slowing me down) |

Feeling okay except the nerve pain is acting up a lot. Doing the PT exercises for my neck and back. They are helping but I need to use the heating pad more again.
Working on good nutrition for myself. I want to get healthy again! We really need to eat from all 5 food groups and if vegetarian or vegan to substitute other sources of protein instead of meat. I hope your day is a lovely one! __________________ One way to get the best out of life is to think of it as an adventure.

Doing everything right. Following instructions to the letter. Weight not cooperating. This morning I even showed a gain.
**** this body. I hate it. I hate me. |

today someone came out to fix my tumble drier. I am so glad it's fixed, it's been broken for 2 days (and seeing as I rely on it, it was the longest 2 days of my life).
I started a new creative writing peace today (which will probably end up forgotten about like all the others) but I love the main character. she's an 8 year old girl that bites things. had a pretty disgusting dinner, it was all I could do not to throw up on my plate I also found an online stream for my hospital radio station. it seems they've gotten with the times now and got one (yay) I am now listening to atlantis |

Trying not to be so hard on myself. I am my worst critic at times. I realize I will do better if I'm not so hard on myself.

Learned this in therapy long ago and have been doing it again when I'm laying in bed and can't sleep. Often I fall asleep doing it:

showered today which has done absolutely nothing to improve my mood (in fact made it worse, and made me feel dirty)
one funny thing about the shower is that it nearly flooded the bathroom. I find that funny anyway. my 4 year old mind doesn't seem to apreciate the complications it could have caused if it had got through to the bedroom I am still feeling a little sick from yesterday's dinner (it was disgusting) I will never use that brand again. no sleep. today my friend sophie was meant to deliver me some doctor pepper, now it's not coming until tomorrow night. hope I have enough fiz to last me today (I go through it like a hungry dog goes through dog food) think today I'm going to do some creative writing and listen to music. nothing special going on |
